                            Tips for Learning:
 
   1.  As in any other subject, learning Spanish demands practice, practice and more practice! 
        Students have to make an effort to study spelling, meanings, sentence structures as often as possible.  
   2.  It is also a good idea to partner up with a peer to review and practice pronunciation.
   3.  Keep in mind that you are learning, mistakes will happen, but learn and enjoy the process.
   4.  Keep good clear notes, ask questions and correct practices when the teacher is doing it in the classroom.
   5.  Check your progress in Power School. 
 

Students are always welcome to visit with me for extra help!

Why learn a second language?
 
 Learning a second language can be fun and extremely beneficial.  It takes you around the world of different cultures and customs. According to vistawide.com "With approximately 350 million native speakers, Spanish is the fourth most widely spoken language in the world." This is why CVCS offers it as an enrichment class from K-8th grades. To learn Spanish or any other language takes time and dedication.  But the effort is largely compensated with the amount of job, professional and personal opportunities that it offers.  Please encourage your student to do their best and to visit with me for any questions or tips to improve.

Spanish is an enrichment class that is offered in elementary and junior high.   At junior high level, Spanish is graded.  Please check in "Power School" for updates on tests, quizzes, assignments, projects, and participation grades.
